I really do wish they'd do something about that fact that DC's main team has 6 dudes and only 1 girl.

And why the hell can't the writing of a female comic be better? I'm sick of the sass. I'm sick of the empowerment speeches... just act it. I'm sick of the Bendis inspired bad hipster dialog. Let's have some action. Let's bring back clothes ripping off and girls ending up half naked.

As a person who is into the females I would enjoy comics more without having to look at muscle dudes everywhere and see some sexy ladies. I know they do exist, but it's just too small a percentage. I'm sick of looking at dudes.

Why did something unobtainable without steroids become what everybody gay comic guy is attracted to? How about some pretty girly boys at least?

Casuals don't read comics. The popularity of Hawkgirl comes from her inclusion in both DCAU Justice League cartoons, and they were pretty influential with the casual crowd. If I remember correctly, wasn't there this whole thing when the GL movie came out over people thinking that it was weird that they casted a white guy as GL since casuals mainly knew John because of the cartoon?

Anime and manga is objectively better than capeshit. More creators, more genres, more works to enjoy unrelated to each other so it's not literally the same shit regurgitated over and over. That's why anime and manga is mainstream while capeshit is niche.

Girls tend to gravitate more toward either bishie/pretty boy types or ottermode guys; note how the actors used in capeshit movies usually aren't that big or muscular. The beefcake fanservice is typically more targeted toward gay men and truly patrician women.
>>
>>84228906
I said women anon, everyone knows gays prefer muscled bodies. That is why the homosexual porn industry divides itself into two branches: yaoi (which is by women for women and it's about handsome, masculine but still relatively normal - compared to the characters in porn for gay men, that is - dudes and effeminate twink self-insert characters for the woman) and bara (which is by men for men and it's all about huge muscles). You can have bara-looking characters in yaoi for those women that like very built guys (they're still always paired with more feminine-looking characters), but two muscled men? That's gay stuff for homosexuals.
>>
>>84228973

Contrary to popular belief, women are not a single entity that share the same taste in men and porn.

I know /co/ is really /tumblr/ but just thinking you're a woman does not make you a woman. Transexuals are not the gender they want to be they're just delusional people that want to be something they're not.

>Contrary to popular belief, women are not a single entity
Indeed but it's undeniable that there are general trends in what women at large like in their porn and when it comes to homosexual porn it is exactly as I described. That is why the vast majority of yaoi creators are women, and their audience is majority women, while the vast majority of bara creators is gay men, and their audience is majority gay men. 85% of Yaoi-Con membership are female, and they are mostly heterosexual.
>>
>>84228858
Because women have shit taste and make poor choices. It reflects in how they're not the dominant gender.

All the comic beefcake pandering works for me, since I'm into manly men and not into pretty boys. Why are you so invested in this topic anyway? Do you want bishonen guys in comics too? Pretty sure all those Robins are perfect for your taste.
>>
>>84228986
The point is that superhero bodies aren't unobtainable at all. Also, literally when has that happened?
>>
>>84229042
I forgot; oddly enough, the small minority of male creators and audience in the woman-oriented genre of yaoi is actually straight men. I suppose that is because yaoi characters are still created with a feminine look and a female mind, which is obviously attractive to a heterosexual man.

but then again... most humans are delusional in some way... believing in god... aliens... conspiracies... usually it's just a means to an end... because they're not logical enough to be truthful.

Executive meddling to make it more like Iron Man, CGI budget massively slashed at the last minute, writing it as a franchise launcher instead of just trying to make a good movie, trying to retrofit a decade old script to include all the new Johns stuff, but mostly all of that comes down to Warner executives having their own financial vision for the movie that didn't align with what the creators were actually trying to make.

Reynolds obviously was pretty torn up about it because he was so into the role, but I don't know if he's actually discussed his feelings on the movie. It's not a good idea to talk shit in Hollywood unless you have an unsinkable career.

They're both sequential art drawn on paper, but manga is much better paced and prettier than comics. When I read manga my eye follows the panel flawlessly, it's extremely fluid. When I read comics there's always some sort of stop moment, the panels don't flow as good, it feels slow and annoying.

There is NO personalty change whatsoever between Usagi and Sailor Moon, at least in the earliest seasons.

Sailor Moon is a scaredy-cat too in the anime's early seasons though. She only really pulls through after encouragement from others or in rare climatic situations.

Late answer but teen girls lean toward pretty bishounen while older women prefer beefcakes. When we're young, manly men are too scary and 2big4u so we want something safe and pretty. As we age, we realize that we want big protectors to take care or us and our young. Also something about when women are ovulating they prefer masculinity over feminity.

It always varies per girl since personal history and culture may have an effect too. So if you see a pretty boy in a series, it's directed toward teens and some young adults whereas if you see baras with tits you can beat like a drum it's probably directed toward women and homos. God bless the male form.

Like I said, personal history and culture can have an effect too. On the nipponise side of things, they mostly have been churning out more bishounen than bara so that was the go-to. But recently, muscles on men in anime and manga are becoming more popular. Free!, that one cheerleading boy anime, All Out, and others I don't know the titles of. The time of slutting out men is upon us and I love it.

It'd be so easy to up the gal-quotient in the JLA.

Wondy, of course.

Mera in for Aquaman. The character is largely irredeemable for his powerset, Mera does everything Arthur brings to the table and more, her water-control power is actually useful in non-aquatic stories.

Vixen. Great character potential from both the writer and artist viewpoint. A hugely diverse powerset without being overpowering gives the writer plenty of space to work with, the artist can go crazy with "holographic" animal overlays as she uses her powers. Double score as a PoC woman.

Hawkwoman. The lingering impact of JLU still remains, nobody gives a crap about Hawkman.

Get Zatanna on the team. What are you doing with a Big League team without a magic-user on the roster?

A female Green Lantern would be beyond easy, and it doesn't feel like nothing but a Rule 63 where there are thousands of GLs. Not sure what I think of the Power Ring gal yet.

Starfire and/or Raven. We let the guy teen character grow up and "graduate" to the JLA, its time for more of the ladies to step up as well.

Personal history and culture applies to those in the west too. You were speaking about anime/manga over western comics within the west and so I gave an answer regarding some of the reasoning behind it.
> japan shits out nothing but pretty boys
> west loves it and eats it up because that's all they get.

Dude, boys in manga were twinky as fuck with little to no muscle definition unless it was a shounen for boys. The muscles being shown now is several steps up from what it used to be and it's getting bigger. Give it time.

But that's not all the west gets, the west has capeshit too. If the west didn't churn out capeshit /co/ wouldn't exist. The west ignores the capeshit in favor of the pretty boys.

>Dude, boys in manga were twinky as fuck with little to no muscle definition unless it was a shounen for boys
Not at all. Stuff for women has had reasonably athletic men for decades as well as twinky boys, and the athletic are not getting bigger. If you want big muscles, you have to turn to stuff for gay men.

There's one thing about female characters that EVERYONE seems to get wrong, being the SJWs, the most current writers, and even female writers themselves strugle with.

It's that when writing females, the writers always focus on that part: that there females. They focus on this way too much when they should instead focus on the fact that they are people. This is why I like Powergirl despite the fact that she's obviously a female, I think her character acts the most like a regular girl--be it her sexuality, male yet female behavior, and emotional depth.
>>
>>84232273
Writer here.

I always just write my female characters like men. Not even memeing. I write them exactly as I would a write a man and so far nobody who reads my comic has noticed or at least said anything.
>>
>Comics are too dude centric.

Oh I wonder why. It might have something to do with comics being published, written, bought, and promoted almost exclusively by men for about 70 years now.
